This includes all kinds of fixed constructions e.g. extending walls etc. If you would like to add or change something, the normal way is to have this discussed at the AGM and to get your plans approved by the community prior to undertaking the work. If you have already had work carried out without the community’s approval then please let a member of the committee know. We shall then need to take pictures and discuss the change at the next AGM/EGM. There is however a risk that the owners will not give their consent and consequently the change will have to be removed at your own expense.• Don’t forget to let the Administrators have your email address if you wish to receive information such as this report or minutes of meetings electronically.• Don’t forget to register at http://lafinca.great-forum.com to see the latest information regarding the community and to let us have any comments or advise us of any concerns.
